  • Union Jack, a US newspaper with a readership of 220,000, refers to the Clean Slate Campaign as `one of the most deceptively simple and yet potentially far-reaching propositions for marldng the new Millennium. Surely this ingenious British idea could well be taken up in other countries.'
  • In the Malta Independent, under the headline 'The Church and Everybody Cleaning their Slate', Bjorn Ole Austad ends his article: 'Such a campaign would go to die heart of the trouble in many countries. Most of us point the finger at someone else when discussing what is wrong. We may, however, have ideas at the back of our minds about where we ourselves can begin. Some years ago a friend did something which offended me. I cut the contact and have not been in touch since. Malcing amends could wait no longer. A letter has been posted.'
  • The Christian Science Monitor, 24 November, feature article on forgiveness by Michael Henderson.
